Description
Mozart: Le Nozze di Figaro (KLEIBER), DECCA SXL 2087-8-9-90
ORIGINAL AND RARE BOX SET
I HAVE NOT OWNED A RECORD PLAYER SINCE THE 1980'S AND THEREFORE THE DESCRIPTION HERE IS STRICTLY
A VISUAL ONE.
FIRSTLY THE BOX SHOWS A VARIETY OF BITS OF DAMAGE AND STAINING AND IS MUCH BETTER DESCRIBED BY LOOKING AT THE 3 PHOTOGRAPHS.
THE BOOKLET AND RECORD SLEEVES ARE ALL IN VERY GOOD UNDAMAGED CONDITION
THE RECORDS .... VISUALLY THEY ALL HAVE AN EXCELLENT LUSTROUS SHEEN BUT SOME WHEN CAUGHT IN THE LIGHT AT A CERTAIN ANGLES SHOW MINOR SCUFF AND FINE SINGLE SCRATCH MARKS......EXAMINING THESE USING A JEWELERS LOUPE THEY DO NOT APPEAR TO ACTUALLY CUT INTO THE GROOVES..... IN THE PAST WHEN I HAVE HAD RECORDS THAT I WOULD DESCRIBE AS SCRATCHED THEY WOULD BE OBSERVABLE VERY EASILY...BUT THESE ARE NOT. ...AGAIN I STRESS THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO PLAY THESE AND ARE THEREFORE SOLD ON THAT BASIS.
THE OTHER THING I NOTICED IS THAT ALTHOUGH LOOKING LUSTROUS THAT WHEN I EXAMINED THEM WITH THE LOUPE I COULD SEE THAT THEY COULD WELL BENEFIT FROM A CLEAN... BUT I DO NOT HAVE THE APPROPRIATE MATERIALS TO UNDERTAKE THIS .
AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHS THERE IS VERY LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR AND AGAIN SUPPORTS MY CONTENTION THAT I DOUBT THESE HAVE BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL.
PAYMENT BY PAYPAL PLEASE
